Ideally, he should be seen by your veterinarian. Diarrhea in birds can quickly lead to dehydration. Mitthu may need subcutaneous fluids for treatment. You can offer a commercial electrolyte replacement beverage and feed a quality pelleted diet. The pellets can be soaked with warm water to make a mash or paste which he may readily eat.
